The rules now are that if you're making a sale thread that you need to use the market to do so. Okay, no worries. But if you're someone like me, that makes mods, the new format is really kind of unappealing. It auto generates this huge post, full of all kinds of extra info that's totally unrelated to say, a translite design. And all you can get for text is the description you enter, which is buried in the middle in italics and hard to read.
And then you get all of the other ads from that person below, which I'm not interested in, I just clicked the thread for the specific topic it was advertising.
Honestly if I was making a sale thread now I'd probably put in the absolute minimum to make the top post as small as possible and then post as I would normally under it. Which leaves a big opening post that's kind of useless until you scroll past it.
